Eva Price is a fictional character from the British ITV soap opera, Coronation Street, played by Catherine Tyldesley. Eva made her first on screen appearance on 17 July 2011 as Stella Price's (Michelle Collins) daughter. She moves into The Rovers Return Inn with her mother and her mother's boyfriend, Karl Munro (John Michie). Tyldesley later said in May 2012 that Eva's glamorous lifestyle can be "straining" and enjoys time off work to wear normal and more comfortable clothes. Kate White of Inside Soap praised the character while a writer for the Daily Mirror nicknamed the character "Eva The Diva". Eva was described as being "feisty." Tyldesley revealed more about her character, saying: "Eva is a little bit of a princess! She's been spoiled rotten, so she's somewhat high maintenance and a little bit of a drama queen. She's definitely used to getting her own way." Laura Armstrong from The People described Eva as a "fit barmaid" and later added that "her shifts at Nick's Bistro seem like a stroll in a Manchester park".
On 24 August 2014, Tyldesley announced that she was expecting her first child and Eva left the show on 23 February 2015, after a turbulent time with her boyfriend Jason Grimshaw (Ryan Thomas). Tyldesley returned to filming on 13 July 2015, with Eva's return scenes airing on 16 September 2015. Upon her return, Eva became involved in a relationship with newcomer Aidan Connor (Shayne Ward) and featured in a child slavery storyline.
In June 2011, Stella Price's (Michelle Collins) daughter, Eva, arrives in The Rovers Return Inn public house and announces she has ditched her fiancé and the wedding is off. Under pressure from Stella, Steve McDonald (Simon Gregson) agrees to let her stay for a couple of nights. Stella tells Eva that she has got a home at The Rovers for as long as she needs it. When Eva is rude to Leanne Barlow (Jane Danson), Stella's quick to apologise and forces Eva to do the same. Stella and Eva are unimpressed as they clear up the debris from Becky McDonald's (Katherine Kelly) lock-in the night before.
